New location for QHB’s Pre-Operative Assessment Clinic
The Pre-Operative Assessment Clinic at Queen’s Hospital Burton has been given a new permanent location.
The full address for this new location is: Pre-Op Clinic, Level 2, Treatment Centre, Queen’s Hospital Burton, Belvedere Road, Burton-on-Trent, Staffordshire, DE13 0RB.
This new location has seen adjustments made to ensure that it is solely a dedicated Pre-Operative Assessment Clinic. Previously, the clinic was based at a number of locations across QHB on a temporary basis.
The new Pre-Operative Assessment Clinic includes seven nurse consulting rooms, two health support worker rooms, and a dedicated reception and waiting area – covering all specialities.
Patients attend a pre-operative assessment before any surgery to ensure that they are medically fit to undergo any anaesthetic that may be required. This typically includes questionnaires around medical history and the patient’s heart and lungs, blood pressure checks, and could include X Rays if required.
If you need to get in touch with the clinic, all contact information remains the same. It is only the new location and its accompanying signage that has changed.
